KIPON introduces a new high speed Canon EF To MFT Autofocus Electronic Adapter that lets you control your Canon lenses on the GH4. They claim it’s the worlds first but Metabones also has this type of adapter as well. KIPON nade a adapter with iris blades built in that wasn’t so good so. We are seeing a lot more more electronic adapters for Canon lenses coming to market now. Maybe the protocol is figured out making them work better. Auto focus sure is lacking in the performance area with adapters. If this new entry actually makes the camera usable for stills AF shooting that would be a big deal. We shall see.
From KIPON.
Five years ago, KIPON developed out world first mechanic adapter with built-in iris, to use Canon EF lens on MFT(m4/3) body, to solve the problem for only electronic iris control of Canon EF lens.

I am very interested in this adapter so I can use Canon EF series lenses on the Panasonic MFT camera I own. I currently run an expensive English made adapter from Adaptimax. While it works great to connect to my collection of Canon glass, I have to do everything manually for focus and zoom, which sometimes is not as smooth, predictable or accurate as I would hope when I’m out in the field using my camera gear. Do you have a link to learn more about or purchase this adapter?
